Cooking the Books
The Colorado state government is playing a dangerous game with your Second Amendment rights—and they’re hoping you won’t notice. Thanks to our recent Colorado Open Records Act (CORA) request, we’ve uncovered troubling evidence about how they pushed Senate Bill 3 (the Semi-Auto Gun Ban/Buy Back Your Rights bill) through the legislature. What we found should alarm every responsible gun owner in this state. [More]
But such sneaky dishonesty delights those who want their guns.
Think about that.
UPDATE
And as we’ve come to expect, the ones targeted consistently and overwhelmingly vote for their oppressors.

New York proposal would ban police from making traffic stops for minor violations to pursue ‘racial equity’ [More]
Proposed by racist Democrats who hate America, but ultimately, it’s fine by me. I never wanted to have to put tags on my car anyway, and anything that will lessen the chances of me being forced to stop and subject to search is a plus in my book.
Just don’t sue me if I rear-end someone who didn’t have brake lights.

It’s the Guns?
Carlos Alberto Diaz-Chavez, 21, a citizen of Honduras without legal status in the United States, has been charged by criminal complaint with being an Alien in possession of a firearm, possession of a machinegun, possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, and possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime… [More]
And how did he get them…?
Tell me with a straight face this doesn’t prove we need more gun laws!

We’re the Only Ones Defamed Enough
Katie Blackwell is assistant chief of operations for the Minneapolis Police Department. She briefly appeared in the film The Fall of Minneapolis (produced by Liz Collin). Based on her appearance in the film and in the related book by Liz, Blackwell brought an ill-advised defamation lawsuit against Liz and Alpha News (I’m a member of the board). [More]

[More]
Gun rights leaders and legal scholars could be identified and nominated to analyze and prioritize bills, lawsuits, regulations, opportunities, and threats, to advise on judicial and other federal nominees, and to help educate the public. The Office would provide a way for the public to express their concerns and to offer ideas and suggestions, meaning gun owners would have a conduit.

The Long and Short of It
The SHORT Act would remove short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, and other firearms from the draconian NFA. Sign the petition now to support the SHORT Act and help GOA get this legislation over the finish line! [More]
The finish line is the president’s desk.
I’m sure some will balk with the requirement to provide a phone number. If the goal is to get ‘er done, it would help if we knew which reps and senators we needed to work on who wouldn’t be a complete waste of time, and who could be publicly pressured via their X.com accounts.
Maybe let ’em know the ban was the excuse the government used to justify executing Vicki and Sammy Weaver.

I appreciate the opportunity to reach a new readership. I invite you to check it out and let them know what you think.

So California requires one and bans the other… Is this where some idiot “progressive” would say “Yeah, but cars don’t kill people”?

Good First Steps
The Department of Justice and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives announced today the repeal of the Enhanced Regulatory Enforcement Policy and the review of Final Rule 2021R-08F, related to stabilizing braces, and Final Rule 2022R-17F, related to the definition of “engaging in the business” of firearms dealing. [More]
As for “consultations with stakeholders, including gun rights organizations, industry leaders and legal experts,” why not formalize that?
A viable way to present a coordinated front representing gun owner interests and having the president’s ear is by the White House replacing Joe Biden’s Office of Gun Violence Prevention with an Office for Second Amendment Protection.

Adventures in Baselessness
Judicial Watch announced late last week that “its analysis and use of voter registration lists has led to lawsuits and legal actions under the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) that have resulted in the removal of five million names from voter rolls in nearly a dozen states and localities” since 2019.

I will say this: Now that Justice reports to him, it’s time for Trump to put up.
If anybody thinks that’s a controversial statement, let’s hear why.
